During Ivan Heimbuch's first visit to Cape Town, South Africa in 2012, he saw low-quality ostrich leather goods being sold in markets. After deciding something better should be made, he got to work and Volstruis was born. Since its conception, the mission of Volstruis has been to "create products that inspire, empower and elicit remarks." Each wallet, belt and lifestyle piece is created not by a European fashion house, but rather an individual whose travels and experience led to one inescapable conclusion: make them, share them, enjoy them for a lifetime.
